Wow that's not bad, better than getting a new car. If you aren't getting bigger turbos, get them hybridised or high flowed, or both

Not 100% yet on what I'm doing exactly with turbos I'm just waiting for the day these die and hopefully get better ones

Aka RBs or maybe even big single

Hahaha wait till they die XD
Don't think that will be anytime soon, I think it's probably best to stick to the twins, I assume everything inside there is designed to mould around the twins and will be a pain in the ass to rewire and relocate stuff for the single turbo. + with a single bigger turbo there will be more lag, two with smaller turbines will offer less lag, if you really do go for a big turbo you may aswell have a twin sequential setup while the mechanics at it lol.

Ordered a new M3 steering wheel trim as my old one was peeling and I couldn't stand looking at it anymore

Also got the BMW performance auto shifter at the same time

I thought the same until I saw this vid:



Basically a large twinscroll single will offer better drivability than twins, simply because you can get better singles that are are based on the latest technology.

Problem with a top mount single on an n54 is that packaging is a huge issue with our shitty tight engine bay.

A friend of mine with an e90 n54 has done a big single conversion and the car is an animal
Over 400rwkw.

Also he done most of the work himself

Your car would like great with my new rims M3 comp pack 359M's

Yeah I reckon a single turbo would be great on this platform, as we have plenty of down low torque and these new technology single turbos have certainly improved to spool up a lot quicker!

Was about to get those wheels but then thought to myself it would have made the car abit too try hard m3 wannabe so that's why I ended up getting m5 wheels instead

Had the gaurds rolled after installing the wheels as i was getting excessive constant rubbing thinking its was enough to stop it.

Well it didn't help much as it was still rubbing over small bumps on the road so I ended up swapping out the H&R race from the rear back to my stock M sport springs which I also had to chop half a coil as the rear was way too high
